"This is not a history book. Rather it is a directory of towns, and
compilation of known information about those towns. In undertaking
the stud, I was amazed at the amount of legend and contradictory
information Colorado history has collected in just one hundred
years. Who was it that said: 'History is the perpetuation of
saleable gossip'? (Perhaps, nobody has said it yet. In that case,
it's mine, all mine.) "As of this moment, this is the most complete
compilation of Colorado mining towns - ghost or going - available.
"For the fourth edition, over 100 towns have been added. Also, I
have included a new chapter (XXVI. Addendum, page 466), the first
couple of pages of which can well be read as a second Preface to
the book." - Perry Eberhart, Preface, 1959 and 1969
